As Shi Lei stomped underfoot, the bluestone shattered instantly. Li Feng raised his eyes to look at Shi Lei, who had leaped into the air.
It's well known that masters rarely leap into the air during combat because power originates from the ground. Once the legs leave the ground, it's like a plant without roots, and maneuvering in mid-air is extrely difficult. Unless one's strength is overwhelming, it's easy to be countered.
Therefore, unless the opponent is very confident in themselves, it's either that or blind confidence.
However, since the opponent dared to step forward, they must be quite sure of their own strength. Li Feng did not underestimate him and kept his eyes on Shi Lei's moves.
Shi Lei leaped into the air, then retracted his fist, and in an instant, a formidable pressure akin to a massive mountain erged above Li Feng's head.
Seeing this, Li Feng's expression changed subtly. His opponent's strength was truly formidable, and this overwhelming montum made it hard for Li Feng to breathe.
At that mont.
Suddenly, an anomaly arose beneath his feet, and the bluestone ground unexpectedly tore apart like an earthquake.
There was a mountain above and a ground fissure below.
Shi Lei's first move was a direct killing blow. As the ground beneath Li Feng's feet collapsed, combined with the oppressive montum from above, Li Feng was completely immobilized.
Suspended in mid-air, Shi Lei slightly curled his lips, then his retracted fist smashed down directly.
Shi Lei practiced one of the most common Earth Formation Techniques in the Five Elents, but what makes a prodigy extraordinary is the ability to master even the most mundane Cultivation Techniques beyond common understanding.
Of course, besides Shi Lei's exceptional talent, it was also because during an outing for training, he accidentally fell into a canyon. What seed like a desperate situation turned out to contain a special mineral, the Earth Core Stone.
The Earth Core Stone is an excellent Earth Elent crystal, rich with Earth Elent energy, and the place where Shi Lei fell was a mineral reservoir.
In such a desperate situation, Shi Lei wasn't disheartened. Instead, he began using the Earth Formation Technique with his battered body, and fate favored him. Within this mineral, Shi Lei's cultivation rapidly progressed, eventually forming a Golden Core.
His Golden Core was unlike ordinary Earth Elent Golden Cores, having absorbed a millennium-worth of Earth Core Stone essence, making it several tis more powerful than an ordinary Golden Core.
After leaving the fissure, Shi Lei returned to Ancestor Dragon City, broke through the hundred levels of the Heaven Tower in one go, and gained deeper insights into the Earth Formation Technique on the Heavenly Road. With this achievent, Shi Lei beca a mber of the new talent ranking.
The geniuses on the new talent ranking are known as prodigies, and they are the elites in Ancestor Dragon City, sought after by various families.
Otherwise, with Shi Lei's backing from a third-rate family, there would be no confidence to seek marriage from a first-rate family like the Qin Family.
Well, the Qin Feng siblings are from the Qin Family, one of the twenty-two first-rate families in the Upper Three Rings. Although they are not the firstborn, they are legitimate sons and hold so influence.
Shi Lei's fist carried a magnificent and imposing Power of Earth, like a teor falling, compressing the air into ripples.
The ripples spread with a mighty and heavy aura, oppressing Li Feng's head again, making Li Feng feel like he was trapped in stone, unable to breathe.
Shi Lei didn't use any specific moves, only exerted his power to oppress, yet it still brought an irresistible feeling.
Crack, crack, crack.
As the punch landed, Li Feng's entire body emitted the sound of bones shifting, and the Punching Power of this punch was like Mount Tai falling, causing White Tiger Square to tremble thrice.
The ox pulling the flower cart let out a muffled cry, sowhat uneasy on its feet.
Many bystanders turned their eyes toward this direction.
The Five Beasts King, who was sweeping aside his opponents, glanced over, his eyes carrying a trace of seriousness. He felt the terrifying power of this punch, standing so close, he could feel the airwaves stirred by the rising dust.
The power of one punch was like an earth-shattering collapse.
"Hiss, this is too strong, who is he?"
"Who is that man?"
On the distant rooftop of the Flowers Pavilion, the Pavilion Master of Flowers Pavilion was drawn by the power of this punch and slightly turned his gaze.
Beside the Pavilion Master of Flowers Pavilion stood a suave scholar.
This scholar was Liu Qinghou, the Tanhua of the Tongfu Inn. Liu Qinghou slightly squinted his eyes, looking at the dust-covered area and scanning across the landing Shi Lei.
"Tsk, truly a prodigious talent on the new talent ranking, extraordinary indeed, an example of the new generation surpassing the old."
Liu Qinghou clicked his tongue and said.
"But your Flowers Pavilion's Oiran Tournant is getting more lively, with even such prodigies joining in, it seems sowhat unfair to others!"
The Pavilion Master of Flowers Pavilion, however, looked indifferent: "Fairness? This world is rely about whose fist is bigger. Who cares about fairness?"
"Moreover, the rules of this Oiran Tournant are simple and clear; anyone can participate, but life and death are one's own responsibility."
"If Liu Tanhua has an eye on any lady, you may as well join in."
"I think I'll pass."
Liu Qinghou shook his head, he had no such intention, otherwise, his family would be full of jealousy, and he couldn't handle it.
"No lady caught your eye, are you just here to watch the excitent? This isn't like you, Liu Tanhua."
The Pavilion Master of Flowers Pavilion glanced sideways at Liu Qinghou. The three major powers of the Ninth Ring each had their own territory, and usually, there were few crossovers. West City, in particular, was exclusionary, so as a senior mber of the Tongfu Inn, Liu Qinghou's sudden appearance in the West City made the Pavilion Master consider his intentions.
Liu Qinghou understood the subtext of the Pavilion Master of Flowers Pavilion and imdiately said, "Pavilion Master of Flowers, there's no need to overthink. I'm simply here to find soone. That person insulted the gem of our Tongfu Inn, and having learned this, I cannot let that rake have his way."
"Oh?"
"Soone mistreated the young Shopkeeper of your Tongfu Inn, who is so unobservant, but are you sure they ca to our West City?"
The Pavilion Master of Flowers Pavilion said.
Hearing this, Liu Qinghou replied, "I suspect he ca to West City. After all, he not only offended our young Shopkeeper but also had a major fight with the Dragon Tiger Sect earlier, even severing the head of one of Han Sanqian's Nine Tigers."
"So it's not just looking for him; the Dragon Tiger Sect is on the move too. Oh, and that person also passed the hundred levels of Heaven Tower in one breath, although not on the new talent ranking. It seems his understanding of the Dao is shallow, but his strength remains very strong."
The Pavilion Master of Flowers Pavilion was indeed curious, for in the Ninth Ring of Ancestor Dragon City, to boldly offend the Dragon Tiger Sect and provoke the Tongfu Inn, that takes imnse courage.
"Then you may be disappointed. With today's Oiran Tournant taking place, the whole West City is in chaos. Finding soone is like searching for a needle in a haystack."
"I'll do what I can, after all, I am not certain he has truly co to West City."
After speaking, Liu Qinghou suddenly exclaid.
"Still alive, huh."
Liu Qinghou's gaze turned to Li Feng, who was smashed into the ground by Shi Lei, the prodigious talent on the new talent ranking, showing so interest.
However, Liu Qinghou never would have imagined that the person before him was the one who bullied Tong Ling'er, for he also would not have thought that instead of escaping, the person would co to participate in this Oiran Tournant.
